marine electric ball valves are critical components used in marine applications to control the flow of fluids, such as water, oil, and gas, within pipelines or other fluid systems on ships or offshore platforms. they combine the reliable performance of ball valves with the convenience and automation of electric actuators, making them ideal for environments where remote control and precision are required.

Here’s a breakdown of what they typically involve:
Ball Valve: A ball valve uses a spherical ball with a hole in the middle to control the flow of fluid. When the hole is aligned with the flow path, the fluid passes through. When the ball is rotated 90 degrees, the hole is no longer aligned, and the flow is stopped. This design offers fast operation and good sealing capabilities, making it highly reliable in both on/off and throttling applications.
Electric Actuator: The electric actuator is used to rotate the ball valve automatically. It is powered by an electric motor and can be operated remotely via an electrical signal. This allows for precise control of the valve, making it easier to integrate into automated or remote systems aboard ships or offshore rigs.
Applications in Marine Environments:
Water Systems: For controlling fresh water, ballast water, or cooling water systems.
Fuel and Oil Systems: In fuel delivery systems or lubrication systems, where precise flow control is crucial for engine and machinery operation.
